The ugly twins
Their advocates and popular propaganda and mainstream education desperately try to highlight the difference and confrontation between nazism and communism when they are two heads of the same two-headed snake.
When one remembers that the word "Nazi" was an abbreviation for "der Nationalsozialisti-sche Deutsche Arbeiters Partei - in English translation: the National Socialist German Workers' Party - the lines are all the more burring.
One thing is certain: their origins are very similar. It was no mere coincidence that the founder of fascism, Mussolini, was an ardent Marxist socialist before he invented his movement (his father was one as well).
Hayek in "Road to Serfdom" wrote that fascism and national SOCIALISM did not have to invent a thing in terms of social engineering, propaganda, manipulation of the masses, etc. communism had implemented everything before them.
Below: 1939, Swastikas and Red Stars parade through Brest-Litovsk as Nazis celebrate victory over Poland alongside communist Soviet allies.
Practically no one thinks of Nazi Germany as a socialist state. It is far more common to believe that it represented a form of capitalism, which is what the Communists and all other Marxists have claimed.
The basis of the claim that Nazi Germany was capitalist was the fact that most industries in Nazi Germany appeared to be left in private hands.
What Mises identified was that private ownership of the means of production existed in name only under the Nazis and that the actual substance of ownership of the means of production resided in the German government. For it was the German government and not the nominal private owners that exercised all of the substantive powers of ownership: it, not the nominal private owners, decided what was to be produced, in what quantity, by what methods, and to whom it was to be distributed, as well as what prices would be charged and what wages would be paid, and what dividends or other income the nominal private owners would be permitted to receive. The position of the alleged private owners, Mises showed, was reduced essentially to that of government pensioners.
De facto government ownership of the means of production, as Mises termed it, was logically implied by such fundamental collectivist principles embraced by the Nazis as that the common good comes before the private good and the individual exists as a means to the ends of the State. If the individual is a means to the ends of the State, so too, of course, is his property. Just as he is owned by the State, his property is also owned by the State.
But what specifically established de facto socialism in Nazi Germany was the introduction of price and wage controls in 1936. These were imposed in response to the inflation of the money supply carried out by the regime from the time of its coming to power in early 1933. The Nazi regime inflated the money supply as the means of financing the vast increase in government spending required by its programs of public works, subsidies, and rearmament. The price and wage controls were imposed in response to the rise in prices that began to result from the inflation.
The effect of the combination of inflation and price and wage controls is shortages, that is, a situation in which the quantities of goods people attempt to buy exceed the quantities available for sale. Shortages, in turn, result in economic chaos. It's not only that consumers who show up in stores early in the day are in a position to buy up all the stocks of goods and leave customers who arrive later, with nothing, a situation to which governments typically respond by imposing rationing. In the face of the combination of price controls and shortages, the effect of a decrease in the supply of an item is not, as it would be in a free market, to raise its price and increase its profitability, thereby operating to stop the decrease in supply, or reverse it if it has gone too far. Price control prohibits the rise in price and thus the increase in profitability.
Of course, socialism does not end the chaos caused by the destruction of the price system. It perpetuates it. And if it is introduced without the prior existence of price controls, its effect is to inaugurate that very chaos. This is because socialism is not actually a positive economic system. It is merely the negation of capitalism and its price system, serving as a non pragmatic controlled opposition in the longterm. As such, the essential nature of socialism is one and the same as the economic chaos resulting from the destruction of the price system by price and wage controls. (I want to point out that Bolshevik-style socialism's imposition of a system of production quotas, with incentives everywhere to exceed the quotas, is a sure formula for universal shortages, just as exist under all around price and wage controls.)
At most, socialism merely changes the direction of the chaos. The government's control over production may make possible a greater production of some goods of special importance to itself, but it does so only at the expense of wreaking havoc throughout the rest of the economic system. This is because the government has no way of knowing the effects on the rest of the economic system of its securing the production of the goods to which it attaches special importance.
The requirements of enforcing a system of price and wage controls shed major light on the totalitarian nature of socialism — most obviously, of course, on that of the German or Nazi variant of socialism, but also on that of Soviet-style socialism as well. Truth is it goes much deeper and sinister but thats at least the economical approach.
We can start with the fact that the financial self-interest of sellers operating under price controls is to evade the price controls and raise their prices. Buyers otherwise unable to obtain goods are willing, indeed, eager to pay these higher prices as the means of securing the goods they want. In these circumstances, what is to stop prices from rising and a massive black market from developing?
The answer is a combination of severe penalties combined with a great likelihood of being caught and then actually suffering those penalties. Mere fines are not likely to provide much of a deterrent. They will be regarded simply as an additional business expense. If the government is serious about its price controls, it is necessary for it to impose penalties comparable to those for a major felony.
But the mere existence of such penalties is not enough. The government has to make it actually dangerous to conduct black-market transactions. It has to make people fear that in conducting such a transaction they might somehow be discovered by the police, and actually end up in jail. In order to create such fear, the government must develop an army of spies and secret informers (aka brethern backstabbing rats). For example, the government must make a storekeeper and his customer fearful that if they engage in a black-market transaction, some other customer in the store will report them.
In sum, therefore, the requirements merely of enforcing price-control regulations is the adoption of essential features of a totalitarian state, namely, the establishment of the category of "economic crimes," in which the peaceful pursuit of material self-interest is treated as a criminal offense, and the establishment of a totalitarian police apparatus replete with spies and informers and the power of arbitrary arrest and imprisonment.
Black market activity entails the commission of further crimes. Under de facto socialism, the production and sale of goods in the black market entails the defiance of the government's regulations concerning production and distribution, as well as the defiance of its price controls. For example, the goods themselves that are sold in the black market are intended by the government to be distributed in accordance with its plan, and not in the black market. The factors of production used to produce those goods are likewise intended by the government to be used in accordance with its plan, and not for the purpose of supplying the black market.
Under a system of de jure socialism, such as existed in Soviet Russia, in which the legal code of the country openly and explicitly makes the government the owner of the means of production, all black-market activity necessarily entails the misappropriation or theft of state property. For example, the factory workers or managers in Soviet Russia who turned out products that they sold in the black market were considered as stealing the raw materials supplied by the state.
Furthermore, in any type of socialist state, Nazi or Communist, the government's economic plan is part of the supreme law of the land. We all have a good idea of how chaotic the so-called planning process of socialism is. Its further disruption by workers and managers siphoning off materials and supplies to produce for the black market, is something which a socialist state is logically entitled to regard as an act of sabotage of its national economic plan. And sabotage is how the legal code of a socialist state does regard it. Consistent with this fact, black-market activity in a socialist country often carries the death penalty.
Every day of his life, the citizen of a socialist state must spend time in endless waiting lines. For him, the problems Americans experienced in the gasoline shortages of the 1970s are normal; only he does not experience them in relation to gasoline — for he does not own a car and has no hope of ever owning one — but in relation to simple items of clothing, to vegetables, even to bread. Even worse he is frequently forced to work at a job that is not of his choice and which he therefore must certainly hate.
For under shortages, the government comes to decide the allocation of labor just as it does the allocation of the material factors of production. And he lives in a condition of unbelievable overcrowding, with hardly ever a chance for privacy. (In the face of housing shortages, boarders are assigned to homes; families are compelled to share apartments. And a system of internal passports and visas is adopted to limit the severity of housing shortages in the more desirable areas of the country.) To put it mildly, a person forced to live in such conditions must seethe with resentment and hostility towards his oppressors.
A Bulgarian friend of ours told us they were forbidden to have curtains in their houses so that everyone can look inside. Everything should be trasparent to the government's rats. And then waited for hours in the line for a rotten cup of expired yogurt as a lunch.
It follows that the rulers of a socialist state must live in terror of the people. By the logic of their actions and their teachings, the boiling, seething resentment of the people should well up and swallow them in an orgy of bloody vengeance. The rulers sense this, even if they do not admit it openly; and thus their major concern is always to keep the lid on the citizenry.
Consequently, it is true but very inadequate merely to say such things as that socialism lacks freedom of the press and freedom of speech. Of course, it lacks these freedoms. If the government owns all the newspapers and publishing houses, if it decides for what purposes newsprint and paper are to be made available, then obviously nothing can be printed which the government does not want printed. If it owns all the meeting halls, no public speech or lecture can be delivered which the government does not want delivered. But socialism goes far beyond the mere lack of freedom of press and speech.
A socialist government totally annihilates these freedoms. It turns the press and every public forum into a vehicle of hysterical propaganda in its own behalf, and it engages in the relentless persecution of everyone who dares to deviate by so much as an inch from its official party line.
It is because of their terror, and their desperate need to crush every breath even of potential opposition, that the rulers of socialism do not dare to allow even purely cultural activities that are not under the control of the state. For if people so much as assemble for an art show or poetry reading that is not controlled by the state, the rulers must fear the dissemination of dangerous ideas. No wonder that the psychopathic dictator Stalin slayed thousands of his very own officials just for fear of conspiracy against him.
The whole Bolshevik scam was an application of the "Problem, Reaction, Solution" concept. Basically, the people who want to seize or consolidate power create a problem, like the revolutionaries did countless times for Tsar Nicholas II and his regime. Then they managed the reaction by skillful use of propaganda- making things look like the Tsar was at fault. Then they presented themselves as the solution to the problems that they themselves had caused. The "Problem, Reaction, Solution" phenomenon is still very much used today in various places and its a micro-image of the whole elitist schemes today. Creating boogeymen and heroes where they are needed.
More on the twisted twins
There are documents that came to light nowadays, showing the high level german official Ludendorff congratulating the choice of Lenin as a returning conspirator of theirs in Russia. Germany decided to financially support and ensure his safe return and the stregthening of his party. Even earlier there is a document proving the exchange of 5 million German marks funding the Bolshevik campaign in Russia. A different one proving on another occassion the German embassy in Copenhagen sending one million rubles for propaganda in Russia. Even at least one of the 42 propagandistic newspaper of the Bolshevicks was printed and funded by the German secret services. The plot thickens and deepens all the more creepily as you dwell in its dark depths... . And the true masterminds behind all misanthropist totalitarianisms... .
I remember a scene from the old show Fall of Eagles where Nicholas is going through a list of dangerous revolutionaries with his police chief and asks "Are any of them Russian?" Most real Russians stayed loyal to the monarchy until the end which was demonstrated by the huge size of the Black Hundreds. The "Russian" Revolution wasn't very Russian.
"The Bolshevik Revolution in Russia was the work of Jewish planning and dissatisfaction. Our goal is now a New World Order. What worked so well in Russia, should be for the whole world to reality. " (The American Hebrew, Sept. 10, 1920)
Marx and Engels were fed, sustained and financed to write their Capital, and "Communist Manifesto" in the Soho of England, while themselves especially Marx were lazybums that barely worked a day in their life.
The Origins will be explored deeper in another Take.
The attrocities
Only a miniscule fragment will be named here of what the Red Plague "achieved" in its century of horrific reign and influence. Some short references and hints were also made on the first part of this Take.
By the orders of Stalin thousands of our Pontian Greek people in 1937 were violently exiled in the depths of Siberia in Kazagstan and Uzbekistan to wither and die in agony from frost and hunger. It was all dressed as a "campaign for the Sovietisation of the economy", while it aimed to erase all elements that could with culturally withstand the red cancer's metastasis. Most people were neve even found, they only left their orphan children and grandchildren behind.
The horrors of communism against my people have no end. From the civil war of 1943-1949 in Greece, were children and wives and pregnant women were often slaughtered just with wires and opened cans' lids to "not even make their blades dull" as the psychopathic men of the "democratic army's" leader butcher Aris Veluhiotis aka Thanasis Klaras were saying. The paidomazoma, in the image of the Ottoman Turks' tactics, stealing, brain washing and recruiting kids to form them into brother-butchers with no family, no religion, no ideals, no homeland and no identity. The perfect communist. You can't be a true communist and at the same time be a christian or a Greek, or Russian, or American or whatever. Countless slaughters and betrayals all with the blessings annd directions of their Soviet overlords. The help towards the Nazis in numerous occasions when they intruded Greece. There is no end to it.
But i shall not talk about my country here, maybe i'll make another take specifically for that reason, i'll concentrate on the suffering of other countries.
The "only" genocide that ever happened.
We had an emetic overexposure to their whining and popularisation of their holocaust propaganda. What about the communist holocaust with over 100 million victims worldwide? Even mentioning the Jewish holocaust with the mere inkling of doubt or slander has been rendered criminal offense globally. One day we even abandoned the morning prayer in my school to talk about the holocaust right before the lessons started, with the blessings of the "Athen's Society of Hebrew Studies" of course.
Here is a sample of incidents about how the red plague ravaged the world. And its only a fragment of history till 45 not including all attrocities that still happen today in North Korea etc.
The aftermath
Even today its toxic tentacles have spread and poisoned society though the cultural marxism devised and brought into mass propaganda by the"Frankfurt School". Marxism and Feminism interconnected and interwined serving as moral corruptors from different angles, one demonising capitalism and the other patriarchy, all serve under the same divide and conquer regime.
Sorry for tiring you, thanks for reading and remember. Always study history and lets not let barbarism win against humanity like that again. Let's hope God will protect us from the reocurence of such horrors as well.

You just compare two of the many totalitarisms that existed.
But by using GROSS etymological fallacies. The use of the word 'socialist' by Nazis says NOTHING.
The Communist German Democratic Republic used the word 'Democratic'.
The Communist (north) Korean Democratic Republic still uses the word 'Democratic'.
In your simplistic take that would mean you consider these democracies , which these were/are CLEARLY NOT.
Usng your simplistic take that would mean you consider every democratic country a Nazi country.
you fail to see the arguments entirely, you isolate parts and distort the results. get your head stroke struck leftard derriere out of my takes please. only humans allowed here.
